This will really get you. I teach “at risk” teenage boys. Last week none of them could name one state in this country besides the one they live in. All of them attended public schools before getting removed or kicked out .

However, I did home educate my children throughout til graduation.

“They dismissed everything I said as “Faux News propaganda” and said they didn’t want to talk about.”

I run into the same exact reaction from all libs, even my own sister who wasn’t raised to be what she and my brother in law have become. It’s beyond frustrating. And these same people watch MSNBC, Jon Stewart/Colbert and the alphabet networks (of course, that’s not propaganda, right? /s)

Even worse, they think what they are hearing on CBS, NBC, ABC is “fair and balanced.”

I’m an educated, involved mom, the sort who could be on PTAs, volunteer in classrooms, make sure homework gets done. Only thing is I’ll wrestle alligators naked before I let my kid near a government school. We’re going to homeschool, which as you point out means my energies won’t be going to fix the system. I don’t feel bad about that. My clear moral duty is to my own child’s welfare first.

The problem isn’t parents like me who are devoted to our own kids. The problem is parents who couldn’t care less, who ship their kids off and trust the goverment to do the raising. The sooner that system collapses in on itself, the better for all involved.
